Just a warning. I've been getting some emails about resetting my Hatrack password, that were not sent from Hatrack (or the Powers That Be).

If you receive anything like that, delete it. Hatrack will not be sending you anything like that--it's someone "phishing" for passwords, and they mean you no good.

Thanks,

If I recieve any I will be sure to log the IP and trace to the system that sent it. I will give you the info if and when I have it.

One can harvest email addresses from profiles even if not logged in. Maybe your IT folks can fix that.
